So, how do I tell if a new memory stick is really working properly and the machine will stay stable? What software and where from? (Free as in beer, if possible.)

edit: machine is 700MHz iBook, 128MB memory + 256MB more now.

Brad suggested a program called Rember to me in, this thread. I was having stability problems, so check it out.

Yup.

Rember is the most thorough memory checker I've found for Mac OS X. It's a wrapper for Memtest, a program that you can run from single-user mode to really check every last ounce of memory.

They're both free as in beer!
